By the way it was about 60 degree's!

Going nowhere - stuck in time!

This guy had his window rolled down,as soon as I took out my camera he got a little nervous

OWS Cowboy

CNN carrying a bicycle with them at OWS

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Marathon runners enjoy the view

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Peace and Quiet almost

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Runners were all over downtown sporting their Marathon Medals. I asked the group sitting on the bench(above) how they liked Running NYC for the day. Seems they are not that fond of entering Manhattan….  Brooklyn is King!

I totally understand why!

 

One of my happy customers…..Puro Chile

One year anniversary

Puro Chile Participates in Travel & Leisure Global Bazaar

Although this isn’t the actual pod used in the rescue was still exciting to see it at

Puro Chile

221 Center Street,

NYC,NY

 

Camilla will be happy to help you! She also invited me to get into the pod for a picture, just in to big of a hurry!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Swanky

Good use of a car in NYC

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Midtown traffic continues to be an absolute  NIGHTMARE especially on the east side. What happened to that incredible Don’t Block the Box campaign? Is it possible drivers read it WRONG and are doing the best they can to BLOCK the BOX? I sat through two GREEN lights before I was able to squezzzzze through!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Finally some Peace and quiet.

I know it may be hard to believe but the East Side Bike way is a great place to get away from it all!

Love riding the East Side Bike way

Got a call from my friend Robert Matson of NYC Recumbent Supply asking if I’d deliver Denise her trike.

Urban Mobility Project/Small Haul delivered this beautiful Greenspeed trike to Denise yesterday!

Good Luck on your ride!


Run or Cycle?

(Greenspeed Magnum runs in NYC Marathon)

So last year, after a lot of campaigning, Denise Lanier, a former Triathlete, now disabled with MS, won the right to compete on a recumbent tricycle. Read on…here

What I thought was a Recording Studio in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

Turned out to be World Famous Asylum Studio Tattoo’s. Great meeting you guys!

Tattoo in NYC this is the place!

For Mothers Day?

Free water in Union Square, I guess nobody knows. Maybe people think its for horses?

I wonder how many of their customers would dare take a ride in the street?

Wish I could have hauled this stuff home from Williamsburg

They have a nicer couch than I do.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ran into Adam Purple riding his bike up Bedford Avenue. In case you’re wondering he looked great, in his 80′s!

I called his name and he stopped for a chat…

I tried to get a photo but memory was all full. This photo is from The Circle be Unbroken

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Remember The Garden? Watch the video really sad.

Cycling around NYC is so much fun!

I was able to install the Ragtop in high winds and driving rain by myself. It took about 15 minutes to get it all lashed down and ready to go.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I was really happy to have finally installed it on the Urban Brute, yet a little weary about going out in the really stormy weather that we often get in Battery Park City, but it held up really well.

I can highly recommend this product for any of you that are slightly bent. With the addition of a front fairing you should be able to ride in anything Mother Nature dishes out!

If you’d like to give one a test ride on your own bike, by appointment, come down with your Bent and I’ll install it for you! Use it for a couple hours and see how you like it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You can purchase the Ragtop Canopy right here on our website!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh yeah… BTW

If you’re in Downtown Manhattan and are in need of a local delivery feel free to contact Small Haul NYC through this website as well!
